Perfectly valid and reasonable solution, though it requires folks using your
app to tweak the startup command (most containers allow this).
Another option is to simply set the property yourself in a startup servlet
using System.setProperty(). Then, you can configure it in your web.xml using
a configuration option or a JNDI entry.
This does bring up a simple question:
Do all of the webapps see the same System Properties? I can't imagine why
not (assuming they share a JVM), but with all of the isolation that's
enforced between the webapps, it gives one pause to consider.
